About Jonathan

Jonathan Caballero is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. He focuses on clear, down-to-earth therapy that avoids heavy clinical language. Jonathan aims to make sessions feel calm and practical for people who are unsure where to start.

He uses straightforward conversation to help with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and addictions. He also supports people dealing with trauma and major life transitions. His background includes focused work with LGBT concerns and gender dysphoria, and he helps parents who are learning how to support a child who identifies as LGBTQ+.

Background and approach

Jonathan trained in psychology and counseling, earning a BA in Psychology from Texas State University and an MA in Counseling from St. Edward's University in Austin. He brings seven years of clinical experience to his work and draws on that experience to shape each session practically.

In sessions he favors a client-centered style that keeps the person’s goals in view. He pairs that with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused methods when they fit the situation. He keeps language simple and builds trust through straightforward, respectful conversation.

People can expect help with relationship questions, parenting strain, identity concerns, eating issues, and career or life-purpose confusion. Jonathan adapts tools and pacing to each person’s needs and focuses on what will make things feel more manageable day to day.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered therapy puts the person's own goals and experiences at the center of sessions. The therapist listens closely and follows what matters most to the person, helping them make choices that fit their life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete tools for daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they will choose or combine methods that feel most useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options let people fit counseling into busy schedules and keep regular contact between sessions when needed. Licensed professionals can use these formats to offer the same therapeutic methods as in-person work, adapted to what each person prefers and finds most effective.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.
